Freshly Made Sketches #723

 

 Freshly Made Sketches #723 is brought to you by our teammie Verena. 

Here's her awesome sketch that had me stumped for a while .

At first all I saw was a fish. Then a whale, then a leaf, then an umbrella.

And at the last minute I thought about a nest and came up with this.

 

I assembled the Memory Box nest and borrowed some eggs from Papertrey Ink 

together with greenery from Altenew. I used a 3D embossing folder that was

buried and rediscovered. Isn't that texture amazing?

The bottom of the card front was covered with cream card stock and the

springtime sentiment was stamped on it. I assembled all of the elements

and called it done, although the card lost its "clean" status along the way.

 

Visit the Freshly Made Sketches blog to see how the rest of the team

interpreted Verena's sketch and join us if you can. You have until Monday,

February 16th at 3:00pm to link up your card. Hope to see you in the gallery!

 

 

Freshly Made Sketches #722

 

Teammie Kim brings us a fun sketch this week  Meet Freshly Made Sketches #722.

 

I thought about going rogue and turning the sketch but in the end I stuck with 

Kim's version.

I used Altenew's Craft Your Life Chocolate Flowers kit, which is still one of my 

favorite sets. I embossed the chocolate bar design and trimmed it per the sketch.

Using the Zero Waste cover plate, I cut flowers and leaves in one pass with white

card stock because I wanted to color them in 

I used bright colors and inked and assembled the blooms. I adhered them to the

diagonal and finished off with a white embossed sentiment.

Visit Freshly Made Sketches for all the details and see more inspiration from the 

rest of the team. Will you go rogue by turning the sketch or play with it as is?

We'd love to see and hope to see you in the gallery!
